out last night although its getting darker sooner now still managed to have fun
popped the wheel up in second tried to keep it at a steady speed but was getting faster,
anyhow done a long wheelie and no one with me to see it grrrrrrrrr
done a few others the last one i was really pleased with, must of been right near b/p it came up nice wheelied for about 30 / 40 yards seemed to be comming down so i give it more revs and it came back up got another 10 / 20 yards out of it, so im guessing its there somewhere now to keep them slow

must get this rear brake sorted

2nd gear clutch ups about 20mph ish getting to 40mph plus even more sometimes , thats what im trying to do though keep them slow and longer. to be honest im not looking at the speeds im listening to engine noise when im dumping clutch
so trying to control the wheelie power etc with brake ..practise is what i need more of
but i have put it down before on the limiter hahahah and had to knock it up to 3rd 4th 5th straight away

getting knee down isnt to hard mate im only a little lad so i have to hang off the bike and remember its got renthols on easy way is try to get knee out point it towards front indicators in that direction not out at 90degree a right hander is ......bum over seat a bit knee out as above and ball of left foot on peg, ball of right foot on peg to no need to be going for 60 mph corners / roundabouts i learnt on a small clean roundabout at 20/30mph ish just go for the touch down first youll get a shock then you in hahahah

(seen your post anyhow you done it)

Nice going man, I've been getting back into messing with wheelies again the past few weeks because it's been beautiful out. I still can only hold them for a second or two but that scared feeling has gone away completely. I used to sit and watch my RPM and mentally prepare myself making sure I started just where I always did. Now I have no opposition to just romp it in first and blip the clutch whenever it feels right. It's amazing how much the clutch plays in to how it comes up. If you slip it right it doesnt matter how hard your accelerating it will come up smooth and nice and easy.

I had one of my neighbors working out in his yard the other day and gave me a thumbs up when I stopped at the intersection, gave him a little wheelie as I passed his house. Felt great
